Some early history … The ancient woodlands of the Rockingham Forest area were once part of a great prehistoric forest which stretched from Peterborough to Oxford. Stone Age man settled in the area and neolithic remains have been found in places such as Gretton, Oundle, Twywell, Weldon, Wansford and Brigstock. Bronze Age finds include pottery at Oundle, Corby, Weldon and Wakerley; a skeleton and bronze dagger near Corby; several burial sites; and a drinking cup at Fotheringay. Iron Age people are known to have settled on three pieces of high ground in the area – at Rockingham, Wadenhoe and at Wakerley. Remains of iron smelting furnaces at Wakerley show that our ancestors were already making use of iron ore deposits. The smelting process needed a lot of heat and they made charcoal to fuel their furnaces. The Romans also made use of the iron ore deposits. Extensive iron smelting from the Roman period has been unearthed close to Bulwick and in Bedford Purlieu woods. Roman occupation was not just a temporary affair. They drove a road west from Ermine Street running from Wansford to the foot of the hill outside King’s Cliffe. They also built villas in the area. Tessellated pavements have been excavated near Deene, at Lowick and Weekley, and a villa and large mosaics was found in the grounds of Apethorpe Hall in 1859.

  • Map 8 Britannia Superior Compiled by A.S
    Map 8 Britannia Superior Compiled by A.S. Esmonde-Cleary, 1996 with the assistance of R. Warner (Ireland) Introduction Britain has a long tradition of antiquarian and archaeological investigation and recording of its Roman past, reaching back to figures such as Leland in the sixteenth century. In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries the classically-educated aristocracy and gentry of a major imperial and military power naturally felt an affinity with the evidence for Rome’s presence in Britain. In the twentieth century, the development of archaeology as a discipline in its own right reinforced this interest in the Roman period, resulting in intense survey and excavation on Roman sites and commensurate work on artifacts and other remains. The cartographer is therefore spoiled for choice, and must determine the objectives of a map with care so as to know what to include and what to omit, and on what grounds. British archaeology already has a long tradition of systematization, sometimes based on regions as in the work of the Royal Commissions on (Ancient and) Historic Monuments for England (Scotland and Wales), but also on types of site or monument. Consequently, there are available compendia by Rivet (1979) on the ancient evidence for geography and toponymy; Wacher (1995) on the major towns; Burnham (1990) on the “small towns”; Margary (1973) on the roads that linked them; and Scott (1993) on villas. These works give a series of internally consistent catalogs of the major types of site. Maps of Roman Britain conventionally show the island with its modern coastline, but it is clear that there have been extensive changes since antiquity, and that the conventional approach risks understating the differences between the ancient and the modern.

  • Appendix 3 Baseline Information
    Appendix 3 Baseline Information This report sets out the findings to date of the baseline data collection exercise undertaken for the SA process. In particular it was used to gain a fuller understanding of the issues in the Plan Area and to inform the appraisal. However, it is appreciated that there are some omissions in the information base, which in any case will be subject to change over time. These omissions will be addressed as soon as possible and changes will be monitored. A list of the ‘implications for the plan’ is inserted at the end of each section, to show the ways in which the Plan could impact on the matters identified. Demography Population Distribution and Structure Table 1 provides details of the size and distribution of the population, the gender and age structure. It can be seen that small concentrations of population exist in the two towns of Oundle and Thrapston, but with the majority spread across the rural area, mainly resident within the well developed pattern of villages and hamlets. While there are some significant variations in the age structure across the Plan Area it is apparent that as a whole it is comparable with the situation in England and Wales and the Region, with slightly more in the 16-64 age range and a little less in the 65+ range. In many ways the age structure of the population is similar to that for the District of East Northamptonshire as a whole. The age structure for the District is illustrated by Figure 1. The Office of National Statistics has made some population growth predictions for the Plan area (2003 based sub-national predictions).

  • East Northamptonshire Greenway – Forward Plan 2014 to 2018 Document Version Control
    Agenda Item 6 Policy and Resources Committee – 19 January 2015 Greenway Forward Plan 2014-2018 Purpose of report To ask Members to adopt the Greenway Forward Plan 2014-2018 on behalf of East Northamptonshire Council. Attachment(s) Appendix 1 – The Greenway Forward Plan 2014-18 1.0 Background 1.1 The Greenway is a programme focusing on the development of attractive and safer walking and cycling routes through East Northamptonshire. The programme broadly follows the Nene Valley corridor with the eventual aim of connecting Wellingborough railway station to Peterborough railway station. 1.2 It is being developed in phases and the whole programme will take many years to be realised. Although the main element is to provide a central route through the district, a key part of the programme is to maximise opportunity to connect to other footpaths and bridleways. 1.3 The first phase of the Greenway was completed in 2011 and concentrates on the routes from Crown Park in Rushden to Rushden College and then onto The Ferrers Specialist Art College. To date two other phases have been completed as a result of an investment of £1.4m, largely funded from external sponsors and section 106 agreements. 1.4 The Greenway Programme Board has produced a Forward Plan (Appendix 1) setting out how the future phases will be developed. This includes the projected costs, potential sponsorship opportunities and maintenance arrangements required for each individual phase. 2.0 Greenway Programme Board 2.1 The Greenway Programme Board (the Board) was established when the first phase was being drawn up.

  • Sampson Frisby (13H1): Rediscovering the Career and Milieu of a 17Th‑Century Freemason
    Sampson Frisby (13h1): rediscovering the career and milieu of a 17th‑century freemason by JENNIFER S. ALEXANDER and KATHRYN A. MORRISON Sampson Frisby (1597-1656) was a prolific stonemason, active in Northamptonshire and surrounding counties in the first half of the 17th century. His distinctive personal mason’s mark has been identified in the accounts of Clare College, Cambridge, and discovered on the ashlar of several significant country houses and churches. This allows his career to be reconstructed, beginning in the important workshop of the master mason Thomas Thorpe (c.1565-1626) in Kings Cliffe around 1618. This study reveals how masons’ marks can illuminate the process of building in the early modern period, developing a methodological approach first published by the authors in 2007.1 It additionally stimulates speculation about the career of Sampson’s father, the equally prolific Humphrey Frisby (d.1624/25), and highlights two factors that had a profound effect on the Frisby family and their contemporaries: the supplanting of Kings Cliffe by Ketton as a regional quarrying centre, and the subsequent disruption of the Civil War. BACKGROUND In 2006, working from scaffolding, the authors collated masons’ marks visible on the ashlar stonework of 1622‑24 at Apethorpe Hall (now known as Apethorpe Palace), near Kings Cliffe in Northamptonshire.2 For analysis, these marks were encoded using a formula based on the number of strokes involved, a system originally developed for the study of phasing in ecclesiastical buildings.3 Comparison with sets of marks found on securely attributed buildings of similar date, notably two well‑documented Norfolk houses, Blickling Hall (1618‑23) and Hunstanton Hall (1616‑24), made it possible to identify the Apethorpe master mason as Thomas Thorpe (c.1565‑1626).
